CHICKEN TAGINE WITH PRESERVED LEMON AND POTATOES
A tagine is the Moroccan equivalent of a stew, usually fragrant with spices and often piquant with preserved lemon. The name also refers to the earthenware dish with a conical-shaped lid that the dish is usually cooked in but you can cook this in a pan on the stove top also, you will have more evaporation than with a tagine, so add the other 1/2 cup of water if you need it

Steps:
- Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towel. Heat the oil in a large fry pan over medium high heat and brown the chicken pieces on all sides. Remove and set aside.
- Add the onion, lemon juice, garlic, saffron, turmeric, diced preserved lemon and a cup of water to the pan keeping the other half cup to one side and add it if you think it is to dry. Bring to a boil and add the coriander, parsley and some salt and pepper. Stir, then add the browned chicken pieces and cut the potatoes into quarters and add to the pan, spooning the sauce over as you lay them inches once the pan is boiling turn down to a simmer and cook until chicken is no longer pink.
